John Edminstin: Bluff Oyster Festival Chair on low ticket sales, the chance this will be the final year
from The Mike Hosking Breakfast · host Newstalk ZB
It's possible this year's running of the iconic annual Bluff Oyster Festival may be the last. Only half of the four-thousand tickets to the event, taking place on May 23, have been sold. Normally it's a sell out by now. Festival chair John Edminstin told Mike Hosking there were early fears about an oyster shortage, but that's eased. He says unless there's a freak storm in the next couple of weeks, there'll be five boats fishing for oysters right up until the festival opening.
